Magomedsharipov will look to deliver an encore to his scintillating UFC debut at UFC Fight Night 115 in September when he returns to action. The 26-year-old Russian styled out on an overmatched but durable Mike Santiago before picking up a second-round submission win to extend his current run of victories to nine fights.

Moraes, meanwhile, will make his promotional debut at the event. The former WSOF title challenger has a strong run for the organization (which is now called the Professional Fighters League), going 3-1 with his only loss coming to dominant champion Marlon Moraes.
